New: /skillify and /adapt-skill

Create skills from scratch. Port skills from anywhere.

8 skills in the bundle April 2026

You just built a great workflow.
Now what?

๐Ÿ”

You want to reuse it

You spent 45 minutes perfecting a complex multi-step process in Amplifier. Next week you'll need it again โ€” but the knowledge lives only in that session.

๐Ÿ“ฆ

You want to bring skills over

You have battle-tested skills from Claude Code or Cursor, but they use different tool names, paths, and frontmatter conventions.

Until now, you had to manually author SKILL.md files from scratch โ€” knowing the full Agent Skills spec, Amplifier extensions, and conventions scattered across multiple docs.

Port Skills From Other Platforms

Translates skills from Claude Code, Cursor, or any AI coding assistant into Amplifier-native format.

๐Ÿ”€

Auto-maps conventions

Tool names (Read โ†’ read_file), paths (.claude/ โ†’ .amplifier/), frontmatter fields โ€” all handled.

๐Ÿ”

Researches unknowns

Encounters an unfamiliar platform convention? It researches the source platform's docs before guessing.

๐Ÿงช

Self-test via delegate

Spawns a delegate self-session to exercise the adapted skill โ€” verifying it actually works in Amplifier.

8-step workflow including platform research, mapping, writing, and a full testing step.

Invoke with: /adapt-skill path/to/source.md  or "port this skill to Amplifier"

Skillify Ate Its Own Tail

Step 1 โ€” Build /skillify

We brainstormed the design section by section, iterating until the skill worked end to end.

Step 2 โ€” Adapt a foreign skill

We walked through porting a Claude Code skill to Amplifier, working out the mapping rules live.

Step 3 โ€” Run /skillify on that process

We literally used /skillify to capture the adaptation workflow we'd just performed.

Step 4 โ€” /adapt-skill was born

That capture became /adapt-skill โ€” the first skill ever created using the skillify skill itself.

It's skills all the way down. ๐Ÿข

The "Consult Skills-Assist First" Pattern

  • Both skills start with Step 1: load_skill("skills-assist")
  • Instead of hardcoding Amplifier conventions, they defer to the living reference
  • When the spec evolves, the skills automatically pick up the latest conventions
  • Recommended pattern for any skill that generates or validates other skills
# Step 1 of every skill-authoring skill load_skill("skills-assist") # Now you have: # - Agent Skills spec # - Amplifier extensions # - Testing guide # - 5 companion files total

skills-assist now includes 5 companion files โ€” including a brand new testing-guide.md for verifying skills before deployment.

Design Decisions That Mattered

๐Ÿ“

Output density matters

Don't dump everything at once, don't micro-ask one question per turn. Group related decisions into natural clusters.

๐Ÿท๏ธ

Description is for routing

Trigger phrases belong in the description field โ€” that's what the visibility hook shows. The body loads after invocation. Too late.

๐Ÿšซ

Fork can't interview

Forked skills run as one-shot subagents. If your skill needs multi-turn conversation with the user, it must be inline.

โœ…

Test before you ship

Both skills include a dedicated testing step using load_skill() and optionally delegate(agent="self").
